AZ-UT: Navajo Mountain

On the 37th Parallel looking west toward Navajo Mountain from Navajo Route 16

“[Navajos] tell in their Blessing Side stories that Navajo Mountain represents the head of the female and pollen figure of Navajoland, called Tádidiln Dzil (‘Pollen Mountain’) or Ni’go ‘Asdzáán (‘Earth Woman’),” according to Laurance D. Linford, Tony Hillerman’s Navajoland. The border crosses the mountain’s southern flank.
